Raiders star wide receiver Davante Adams is trying hard not to show his frustrations with his team at the moment.
On Monday night, Adams only had one catch for 11 yards in the Raiders’ latest loss against the Lions.
During the game, Adams slammed his helmet after QB Jimmy Garoppolo missed him while he was wide open.

While speaking to the media after the game, Adams didn’t want to say anything that would get blown up by the NFL media but did admit that he was frustrated.
“I honestly don’t know what to say at this moment, I wish I had the words to say something that’s not going to get blown up in the media and taken out of context.”
“Frustration but that really goes without saying”
“It’s not hard to maintain confidence in our offense,” Adams said. “It’s just hard to curb your frustration when you can’t put it together when you know you should.”

Before the game Adams commented that he wouldn’t request a trade from the team despite his frustrations with the offense.
“I am happy to be a Raider, 100%,” This was my choice and this is something that I’m standing by, I want to continue to work at, to make it what it’s supposed to be. I’m not happy at every moment with the way things go, but I’m definitely proud to wear this uniform. … I’m not looking for a new home.”
